A case of complex macula-off retinal detachment following traumatic globe rupture
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 9-year-old boy was referred to our service for the first time for an emergency consultation with worsening vision in his right eye for 2 days. He had a pencil injury to the right eye seven months prior with a ruptured globe repair and subsequent posterior chamber intraocular lens (PCIOL) surgery for a traumatic cataract six months after the injury; this repair was performed by another provider. Visual acuity of the right eye at initial presentation was count fingers.

Visual recovery after scleral buckling for macula-off retinal detachments: An optical coherence tomography study.
PURPOSE To assess the postoperative macular reattachment through OCT3 in eyes treated with episcleral surgery due to macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, as well as to verify if there is a statistically relevant relation between the persistence of a subfoveal detachment and poor postoperative functional recovery. METHODS Twelve eyes of 12 patients who underwent episcleral surgery due...

The authors present a rare case of large chorioretinal rupture caused by blunt traumatic injury of the globe. A 22-year-old woman sustained a blunt injury to her left eye. The best-corrected Snellen visual acuity was 2/20 in her left eye, and hyphema and vitreous hemorrhage were noted. The day after the injury occurred the vitreous hemorrhage had disappeared. Fundus examination revealed a cresc...

INTRODUCTION Sympathetic ophthalmia (SO) is an uncommon bilateral granulomatous panuveitis following uveal trauma to one eye. We present an unusual case of SO which resulted from presumed occult globe rupture following blunt trauma; and highlight the association of trauma and acquired external ocular pigmentation as a possible predictor for SO. CASE REPORT Five weeks following blunt trauma to...

متن کاملSpectral-domain optical coherence tomography imaging of macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment
The timing of repair and the utility of spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) for macula-off retinal detachment remains a controversial issue. Four patients who presented with macula-off retinal detachment underwent repair at various time points after symptom onset. Postoperative SD-OCT of the macula demonstrated correlation with final visual acuity.
